"The face of the operation is Briatore (referred to exclusively in the film by his colleagues and angry, chanting detractors as "Flavio"), an anthropomorphic radish who spends most of his time at QPR plotting to fire all of the managers."

At press time, Harbaugh had sent Michigan’s athletic department an envelope containing a heavily annotated seating chart, a list of the 63,000 seat views he had found unsatisfactory, and a glowing 70-page report on section 25, row 12, seat 9, which he claimed is “exactly what the great sport of football is all about.”

Tada: Michigan's Home Jersey

On the big version you can see what Callihan was talking about when he mentioned a little "strip": there are teeny block Ms on the inside and outside of the back collar. Tentative thumbs up from me; they'll probably look fine on the players.

The away jerseys have a thin maize piping straight across the chest. There also have a small maize strip on the back of the collar that says Michigan in blue. [he would later clarify that the strip is the block M thing above -ed]

Dex, you know the entire school will fall apart if the uniforms change. I mean, Michigan only makes insane money off merchandise sales. Of course they were going to let Adidas give us garish Boise State jerseys. Wait, the jerseys look almost identical? Hmmm, does RichRod know Steven Threet isn't Pat White?

Is it really a block M on the sleeve? I think it might just be the number 1. Take a look at the top of whatever-it-is on the sleeve. On the right sleeve (if you were wearing the jersey) on the front-facing image, there is no serif, which matches with the 1 on the front/back of the jersey. Here, I was really bored and illustrated: http://83tilinfinity.com/images/random/m_jersey.jpg

The M on the sleeve might be too much! Plus players today don't wear sleeves maybe back in the 90's they did. What are they going to do, have the M on the shoulder pads? I will have to wait and see how it looks on the players.

Also the MGOBLOG banner, is that a picture of Hart fumbling as he goes into the goal line against Florida? I know not funny since he only fumbled only a handfull of times his entire career!

I'm inclined to agree that from that image, it doesn't appear to be a block M at all on the sides but just the number. The block M certainly wouldn't be an awful, horrible look, but I'd prefer to see them stick with the old style. Just seems more right to my eyes.
Frankly, I'm just annoyed that the only blue no. 1 Nike jersey I could get from M Den is like a fucking 4x. I'm fat, but not nearly that fat.

I'm not a big fan of that maize writing above the number. It appears to be three diagonal bars of varying length with some writing underneath, but it's too small for me to make out what it says. Why did that part have to change? I think Adidas should put a swoosh there like before.

Maybe it's just me, and I'll probably get torn to pieces for this, but why were we alarmed that the away jerseys might change? When I was at UofM all anyone ever did was bitch about how our away jerseys looked like scrimmage jerseys and needed more color. I for one hope they change. I always liked the home jerseys so I'm glad they aren't changing much.

"A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal."

Mich-Dog, do you really think someone out there will see a person in a Michigan jersey and think, "Wow, a Delaware fan"? I mean really. I think Delaware's the ones who need to be concerned about brand identification, not us. (On second thought, they'll probably sell more if people can't tell the difference between theirs and Michigan jerseys...)

The home jerseys look great. I am wondering a little how this "thin maize piping straight across the chest" is going to look on the away jerseys. It seems a little odd.

The new one is much better. I have a feeling that the collar will be a nice touch. Now, when I rock my $90.00 M jersey, I WILL be able to score with the babes!
I know it was that last jersey, and not my studley looks and really neat collection of Michigan Player cards that I show the bitchez at the bar. Nor is it my light saber. Light sabers rock! Bitchez love them! It was definitely that old jersey. The new jersey will go much better with the bow tie that I wear all the time, too.
Fucking bitchez better look out! I'll get one or more of you into my pit yet!

Did you guys see that dumbass that said she saw Jeebus in her ultrasound?
How in the FUCK does she know what Jeebus looks like in the first place to have something to compare it to?
See how fucked up these cross jockeys are?
